I don’t mean to say he isn’t religious. At least, I don’t mean to just say that he isn’t religious. There are lots of things that Rand doesn’t believe in or ascribe to. Here is a short list:

Tarot cards

Palm readers

Any type of healing that involves crystals

Putting sugar in your tea/coffee/booze

Using coupons

Pre-rinsing dishes before putting them in the dishwasher

PUTTING DIRTY CLOTHES IN THE GODDAMN HAMPER INSTEAD OF LEAVING THEM IN A PILE OF THE GROUND (Ahem.)

The afterlife

Taking vitamins

Holding your breath while driving through tunnels

The existence of Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, or any other awesome and totally real creature

Listening to the nagging feeling in the pit of your stomach

Obeying the GPS

He’s perfectly respectful of people who do believe in those things. I’ve never heard him ever disparage the views of those who think differently than he (as long as those views aren’t intolerant in and of themselves).
